Let's look at this now, on paper we should get beat by 20+ points. It's amazing what Fred is doing with the talent level he has. The players play hard for him, and it's very fun to watch.

I don't think our basketball recruiting needs the help. Fred is a high school blue chips dream - his up tempo offense combined with his NBA connections should be enough for him to handpick his recruits. He won't win every battle, but he'll get enough of the guys he wants.

Re: Let's put this win in perspective

After watching this game Baylor seems a lot like our team last year. They have a lot of talented individuals, but no team. They didn't seem in sync at all and Dunn seemed to want to do everything himself.

Thank you for posting.
I have no doubt that this type of comparison can/could be made all season.
We are going to beat several teams that we shouldn't even have a chance to beat.
Fred has a way of making people believe in themselves and how their efforts can affect the outcome of a team effort.
How does that saying go ............... the sum of the parts is greater than the whole?

Re: Let's put this win in perspective

What is it with Baylor coming up here their past 2 trips with better teams and laying eggs? Not taking anything away from our guys - today was pretty clear an us beating them thing. But I remember the '09 home game against Baylor - one we should have lost by a lot and Baylor didn't even show up to play.
